New tax rates in EU, taxation of services world wide
Posted: Wed Jun 30, 2021 8:46 pm
As of July 1st 2021 businesses that turned over more than 10,000€ to private EU customers in 2020 have to charge the individual tax rate of the recipients country.
So before, say you ordered from Sweden you were only charged the German VAT of 19%. With the new rules you will be charged the Swedish VAT of 25%.
For services, i.e. Engineering hours or firmware keys I have to charge individual VAT in EU and German VAT in rest of world.
As before, when you have a EU VAT Id I will subtract VAT afterwards.
Fun fact: for every percentage between 17% and 25% there are countries in the EU who implement it
Guess how much fun it was declaring all the zones 
And then there is Hungary who charge a whopping 27%.
I hope I haven't done any mistakes this time.
